    Default Security Shield and Spyware Doctor

    Security Shield got through earlier this week and almost destroyed my computer. Another program finally caught and destroyed it, but tonight Spyware Doctor got past Spybot and was waiting for me to open it. Luckily, I deleted it before it could take control of my computer. My question is why or how did Spybot miss both of these known and notorious malware programs?

    Hello,

    We have them both in our detections.
    1. Please make sure that you are running the latest version of Spybot - Search & Destroy including the latest updates.

    To see which version number and/or updates of Spybot - Search & Destroy you are using please run Spybot-S&D and choose "Help" --> "About" in the menu bar.
    There you can see which version you have and which updates are installed.
    It should be version 1.6.2 and the updates from the 2011/01/26.

    2. Please make sure you have enabled the resident TeaTimer, the SDHelper and the immunization of Spybot - Search & Destroy.

    Best regards
